Women’s Blazers FAQs

What are the different styles of women’s blazers?

Women's blazers come in several styles that allow you to dress for any occasion. 

Cropped blazers are a great option when you want a jacket that combines classic sophistication with a modern fit. We recommend pairing cropped styles with straight-leg pants. Wear a relaxed-fit knit blazer for women if you're putting together a casual outfit for lunch or drinks with friends. 

The longer business blazer is an office staple that adds refinement and structure to any outfit. If you want to mix it up a bit, try pinstripe blazers for women with a white T-shirt and bootcut pants to make a statement while keeping it professional.

How do you style a women’s blazer?

There are many ways to style a women's blazer — it all depends on the occasion.

When styling your blazer, you want to consider the cut, color, and tone you’re trying to achieve. For example, you typically wouldn’t want to wear one of our striped blazers for women with pants that feature a busy pattern. However, they can be used as an accent piece with an otherwise monochromatic outfit.

Business blazers are a classic look in professional settings, and you can pair them with a button-down shirt and straight-leg pants. Relaxed blazers give you more of a casual look, and they look great with jeans and a cotton tee. 

Complete your blazer outfits with minimalistic jewelry for a sleek look. To dress down women’s blazers, incorporate scarves and neutral or beaded accessories; this makes for a great weekend look or date night outfit.

If you need help styling your new blazer, you can consult a virtual stylist with our Style Connect service.

Can blazers be casual attire?

Blazers can be incorporated into casual outfits; you just need to find the right style. You don't want to combine a formal blazer with casual wear, but relaxed-fit blazers pair well with jeans and a T-shirt.

Faux leather blazers are a layering piece that can add versatility to your wardrobe. Wear one over a cotton dress or with a bodysuit and your favorite jeans for brunch with friends or running errands in style.

If you're going on vacation, you can pair a linen blend or soft blazer with some of your favorite pieces from ourTravelers collection to create outfits that are perfect for sightseeing, relaxing at the resort, and everything in between.

How do you find the best blazer for your body type?

When you're shopping for a women's blazer, you want something that complements your body type. Make sure you have enough room in the chest area, and consider an open-front blazer if you're having trouble finding something that fits comfortably. 

Structured shoulders or shoulder pads are flattering if you have narrow or small shoulders. A more relaxed fit is generally better if you have broad shoulders.
